Not only isn't that the right ketchup (it's not Blue Label), it doesn't even have fructose in it, it has the dreaded glucose-fructose syrup, very bad for you, definitely a sugar (and clearly designated as such on the label) and loved by the manufacturers for its cheapness.

Ouch.
This Canadian product is what's available to us, in response to the demand for the Heinz 1-Carb, which despite being actually manufactured in Canada, is simply not sold here by Heinz, only in (parts of) the States.
Go figure.
I expect that SOME day, Heinz will sell here. I hope the PC brand has the market share by then, or they'll just get run over just like all the other "smaller" developers and end up cancelling the product line...
Sheesh.
Rant over.
